Do you get a shot for the chicken poxs?
Question:
Answers:
Since you are experiencing Chicken Pox right now..No they will not give you the shot for them. You only get Chicken Pox once in your life and since you have them now..it would be useless to get it. Hang in there..Chicken Pox only lasts about 7 days.
Yes, there is a vaccination called varicella that prevents chicken pox. It's required for babies and childrens now, and if you haven't the chicken pox yet I would hight recommend getting it. The chicken pox can be deadly for adults.
NO. There is a vaccine to PREVENT the chicken pox, but once you have them, they probably will want it to run it's course. Most doctors don't want you to come to the office with the chicken pox, because you may give to another patient. Why didn't you get the vaccine? It's school law in most states.
No they will not give you the varcinella shot right now and since you have now already had it than will not need it in the future.
If you have them, just use Calomine lotion. Do not scratch them. There is a shot but it is for babies so they don't get it.
Nope, sorry. Actually, while you have the chicken poxs they won't give you anything.
